Umbilical Cord Hemangiomas: A Multi-Institutional Case Series With Literature Review.

Umbilical cord hemangiomas are rare lesions, for which data on pregnancy outcome is lacking. This study combines a multi-institution 4-case series with a systematic literature search (n = 52) to determine possible pathologic lesion parameters which may have an effect on pregnancy outcome. Of all 56 pregnancies, lesion size ranged from 0.

Implementation of endometrial cancer molecular subtyping into a hybrid community-academic practice.

Objectives: We sought to confirm utility of our institution's modified Proactive Molecular Risk Classifier for Endometrial Cancer protocol in our daily practice, which includes mismatch repair (MMR), p53, and L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) immunohistochemistry with in-house next-generation sequencing for POLE, TP53, and CTNNB1.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of all patients in our institution who underwent primary endometrial carcinoma resection from the year prior to protocol implementation (PRE; October 1, 2020, to September 30, 2021) through first year of implementation (POST; October 1, 2021, to September 30, 2022) to compare the distribution of molecular and traditional staging factors using GOG-249 criteria to assign clinical risk.

Results: In total, 136 of 260 PRE patients were classified as clinically low risk (LR), of whom 31 were MMR deficient.

Radical local excision of the mons for treatment of recalcitrant lymphangioma circumscriptum.

•Acquired lymphangioma circumscriptum may arise in adulthood as a result of blunt trauma.•Large scale surgical excision may effectively treat recalcitrant lymphangioma circumscriptum.•Patients with large lymphangioma circumscriptum lesions may benefit from earlier surgical intervention.

Campylobacter concisus gastritis masquerading as Helicobacter pylori on gastric biopsy.

Objective: Campylobacter concisus is a Gram-negative rod closely related to Helicobacter pylori. We sought to identify gastric biopsies positive for C. concisus that had been misdiagnosed as H.

Atypical presentation of Takayasu aortitis and myocarditis contributing to sudden death in a young Canadian first nations adult.

This is a rare presentation of Takayasu arteritis in a 30-year-old Canadian First Nations woman with cardiac and aortic root-predominant disease, which manifested in complete heart block. She had a past medical history significant for substance misuse. At presentation, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging identified diffuse thickening of the left atrium and ventricular outflow tract with left ventricular cavity dilation and preserved systolic function.

Thermal optima and tolerance in the eurythermic goldfish (Carassius auratus): relationships between whole-animal aerobic capacity and maximum heart rate.

The wide thermal tolerance range of a eurythermic fish (goldfish, Carassius auratus) was used to evaluate how temperature performance curves derived from maximum heart rate (fH) related to those for aerobic scope. For acclimation temperatures of 12°, 20°, and 28°C, optimum temperatures derived from aerobic scope curves (Topt) were 19.9° ± 0.
